Pros

Somewhat relaxed atmosphere, wasn't micromanaged on daily basis, small local offices have a lot of freedom. Very good environment for younger inexperienced workers to get some experience, practice foreign language, learn the culture in another country and find out how corporate world operates.

Cons

Part time workers are not paid so well, expected to work on call, weekends too. There is always chance to be relocated, even to another country if they lack of resources.

Pros

Working at the UN was an amazing experience, being able to take part in such a significant mission was great.

Cons

As I was not a full-time volunteer and was also responsible for fundraising in my territory, I felt that I did not receive the same treatment as the other volunteers. It was a challenging role and experience, and at times it felt like my well-being was not fully considered.
